those bridges flipping upside down and the shapeshifting staircases were some next level platforming action back in the day! and that is also the song I go to most when going for sonic soundtracks. I jammed with a band for a while that played it, and also mystic cave zone.

run the whole trilogy, and keep those speakers cranked up

if 5 people are sitting together, and 4 of them proudly proclaim to be nazis, and the 5th person doesn’t leave - there are 5 nazis sitting together

you only ever get one true blind playthrough. I would gladly blank all of my soulsborne knowledge to play through all of them again with fresh eyes.

it’s not the same, but if you’re playing on PC there are some decent mods for DS 1, 2, and 3 that make them a little more fresh. particularly, the randomizer for DS1 makes it a pretty hilarious challenge, since you can no longer plan your runs in advance, and have to roll with absolutely mismatched gear

ha! I definitely should get an ornamental gold one, at this point.

I’ve used steel for a long time for the durability, but switched to a brass one for my current job. we have important stainless surfaces that need to stay polished and unmarred.

the only multi tool I need:

“A rice cooker. Making rice in a saucepan will yield different results almost every time, but a $20-50 rice cooker is just a set it and forget it kitchen tool that yields the same results every time. Very nice and easy.”

A little bit of grammar goes a long way.

nice features, albeit highly situational, and probably useless for most home cooks. I imagine R&D needed something new for the model and over-engineered it.

both work, not sure if there’s a real historical significance to using one over the other.

in my opinion, “all hat, no cattle” has stronger assonance, and flows better as a phrase. especially with a slight southern USA accent, it has a satisfying cadence

people love data collection, tho; just makes them feel like a part of something

and lady bugs are actually beetles, not “true bugs”
